Amongst collecting petroliana, old radios, neon signs, and various cars, my son loves emergency vehicles which we have two. We have a fully restored 1965 Plymouth Fury I Colorado State Patrol car and an original unrestored 1965 Dodge Polara California State Patrol car....thus 1965CHPCSP. Also, my avatar, the Armour Frank Boy, reminds me of my son when he was younger.
Collecting Conoco, Gates Rubber & Tires, B.F. Goodrich, Cliff Brice, Vickers, Mobil, National Refining Co., Philco, Ma Bell and Pikes Peak Hill Climb!

I'm a LORD of the Rings junkie and collect oil cans mainly. I always thought the early advertising on cans that reflected PARAFFIN was interesting and different. LORD + PARAFFIN.....well you get the point!

Well my love of petro is deep rooted in the hunt for it. My favorite part is the 30 feet from my truck to the front door of a house that i hope to pick. I love it i love when a guy comes out and useually nothing is for sale and then i slowly move him to the position of a seller. I love getting in the barns and the school buses. That are full of anything it doesnt matter what. I just want to be in there. Getting filthy and sweating to death. I always want to find something. But most of the time i dont. For me its about putting my hands on the "rust & dust".
Hunt long and hard the good stuff still out there. Jonathan lowry.
